There are lots of things that can be put down to personal taste, however I can't let this abomination go.

I am referring to Branston Smooth.

I love Branston Pickle, but I can't get on board with Branston paste. Is there a better example where a manufacturer made an updated version of a food that was objectively worse?

      Ah, that reminded me of another bizarre Guinness product I saw when I was travelling to the States.

      Why would you have Guinness American Lager?

        They did do a really nice lager some years ago. It was a limited edition but rather good. Wish they'd bring that back instead of this crap.

      I want to know what this is, but I'm not sure how to Google it. Can you give me a couple keywords to include with the name?

        They are pork meat balls, made with pork belly, bacon, if you get traditional removeds then they will also contain a bit of liver and kidney too.

    Princes tinned chilli.

    I get Sunday evenings to myself at the moment, so I've been doing the whole sitting in front of the telly eating some shit that the wife doesn't like. I tried chilli with cheese, sour cream, and Doritos, but didn't want to cook just for myself.

    I tried a tin of Princes chilli, and while it was nice enough, it's pretty much pureed.

    I'd tried another brand the week before, and it was lovely, but this felt like eating baby food.

    I once tried Red Bull Cola.

    I am very flexible when it comes to Cola. I have my strong preference, but I'll drink other brands to when offered, with one notable exception: You'd have to pay me to drink Red Bull Cola again. They should've stuck to Energy Drinks. All their pretty flavours are nice, but that one product is an crime against my tastebuds.
